I am trying to find information on the Paterson family. I presume they lived in Middleton as their daughter, Ann Paterson was b. 1796 in that town. She had a sister, Elizabeth Paterson. The parents names are unknown. She was married in the Church of Ireland, Carrigrohane, in 1818 to David John Thomson, who was a British soldier in the Royal Artillery. The sister, Elizabeth Paterson was married to James Purvis, also a soldier in the British army. Bonnie
